Update cordova project from 3.3 to 4.x

I'm having a lot of trouble updating a cordova project from 3.3 to 4.x. The documentation says that after updating de CLI I should execute:

cordova platform update iOS

But I get this error:

Error: Cannot find module 'shelljs'

    at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25)

    at maybeClose (child_process.js:756:16)

Can you help me with this update?

I had a similar problem. Try running the command with admin permissions (sudo).

sudo phonegap platform update ios

Then enter your password.

I had the same issue. Found solution here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8036

  1. install shelljs 

    cd 
cd .cordova/lib/npm_cache/cordova-ios/3.7.0/package/bin
npm install shelljs
  2. cordova plaform update ios

That worked for me
